Hi Ladies

I have spent the afternoon in A & E. I have been bleedng badly and have had lots of clot like things coming out TMI.

After several needles and an internal the doctor says my womb is closed and it could be a threatened miscarriage, any way after another urine test which came out BFN he states that it probably is a miscarriage, me and DH had guessed this due to pain and clots.
I have to wait for tomorrow for blood results to see whether they are scanning me but I think it is fair to say its over for me.

I will let you know and I pray you will all be ok, I can't beleive it really, gutted and the awful experience today has kinda put me off for a while.

Bye. X

TwilightSurfer · 03/12/2007 01:09

Coolkat saw your post on the 2WW thread. It's very early but support in the earliest stages helps in so many ways. That said, you are invited to join me and many others on the MC Avengers thread. At this moment there are two ladies who are mid-miscarriage on the thread. Come over when you're ready, we'll be there waiting.

EEC · 03/12/2007 08:06

Oh coolkat. So sad for you. Big hug.

sfxmum · 03/12/2007 08:46

min912 · 03/12/2007 10:08

So sorry to hear your news Coolkat, hope you and your DH are looking after each other and taking it easy at the moment.

Thinking of you

Breizhette · 03/12/2007 10:32

Really sorry Coolkat. Look after yourself. xxx

Breizhette · 03/12/2007 10:37

I am just back from my scan and although I am 6+1 today, the doctor said I must have ovulated later as she could only see a sac but no embryo. I have to come back in 10 days time.

Of course I am sick with worry now. But as I am still breastfeeding this could have an effect on my ovulation.
She also said that she saw the vitelline sac, which was a good sign. Of course I was straight on to google but I shouldn't as it worries me even more... Just have to wait now, but patience is not my strong point...

isaidhohoho · 03/12/2007 11:26

big hug to Coolkat

Sounds like alot of people have had a crappy, worried weekend; hope you all feel better today.

Positive thoughts here for Breizhette; there is def something there, so that is something good to think of.

I'm starting to get a little bump (10 weeks today - 25% there!), but I don't think anyone else would guess. All my clothes still fit. Will try and post a picture of it!

Oh COOLKAT - am so so sorry. Nothing anyone says will make you feel any better so just to let you know sending love and healing vibes xxxx

I am so pathetic at the moment - crying at everything and nothing. It is so horrid that 3 people have left already scary.

On a positive note I am feeling much better today due to decent sleep last night and cold is clearing up a bit.

My LO had hand, foot and mouth a month ago and I am worrying now that it may have affected growing LO. Your rational mind tells you everything will be okay but your woman worrying all the time part of your mind freaks you out!

I so hope and pray that everyone else on this thread goes on to have healthy strong LOs.

Hope the rest of you are well today xx

paulaplumpbottom · 03/12/2007 12:48

My goodnes HoHoHo you are poking out quite a bit

santascRUMPELedsuit · 03/12/2007 12:53

Ho ho ho - you will be wearing vertical srtipes soon enough

PutThatInYourPipeandSmokeIt · 03/12/2007 13:24

Oh coolkat - I'm so sorry

I am glad to admire a couple of definitely there bumps because mine appeared overnight on Thursday. I am just resigned and hope that it's a good sign that it's appeared. I'm 7+5 today and off to the GP in a bit. Still fiendishly exhausted and generally poorly feeling. LO just about to wake up from a nap and I'm ready to crash again. I feel so guilty as I'm not putting much energy in to her and she so deserves me to.

Jodiew79 · 03/12/2007 13:46

Hi guys, hope you don't mind me joining in, am 9 weeks (by my calculations) should know more on the 18th at dating scan. feel awful, although no sickness yet fingers crossed! DS is taking it out of me at the minute and I too feel really guilty as keep snapping at him and all he wants to do is play...

EEC · 03/12/2007 14:10

Welcome and congrats Jodie.

I can make my tummy look like hohoho - but it's not firm like baby bump when that comes, so just have to face the fact that it is mostly jam sandwiches. (am trying to convince DH that it's due to pregnancy water retention etc. - but unable to convince myself).
Am feeling horribly antisocial at the moment. I'm perfectly happy, just don't really want to see any one. Just happy in my own little baby world. I think it's the frustration of not being able to talk about it, and also general tiredness and nausea. Nothing to do with the spots that broke out today of course.

paulaplumpbottom · 03/12/2007 14:12

Welcome Jodie

min912 · 03/12/2007 15:12

I'm probably wrong in my metaphor here, but at this early stage aren't babies kind of like parasites, in the sense that until the placenta is in place they are essentially getting their energy/food/whatever it is they need directly from us, hence we end up feeling like the living dead most of the day. Plus I suppose are we making the placentas??

I'm sure I didn't feel this frickin exhausted first time round, but then I had the luxury of sleeping in til 9am most days. Those were the days!!

Hello Jodie!

MINNIE1 · 03/12/2007 15:22

coolkat,
So sorry to hear your news, stay strong it's a hard time for you and DH. Sending you a big hug pet.

Breizhette,
Really hope it's nothing. You will be up the walls for the next 10 days. will be thinking of you.

Sweetkitty,
Had a lovely day, Was'nt up for a big party but the house was full all day. So we sang 10 rounds of happy birthday!! Was so tired just could'nt wait to get to bed. DD is walking alright and loving it. Both DD's started walking at 11 mons, so funny to watch.

As for bumps i have one but its all flab from previous PG

Cheese is the only food i am taking at the mo, its sooooooo nice!

sweetkitty · 03/12/2007 15:23

I hate this stage of the antenatal thread when people have to leave and I also know how it feels to wave goodbye and see the thread in active convos without you which kind of hurts as well

Still we are where we are hopefully no one else will leave.

I don't think it's a proper bump at this stage my reckoning is that as your uterus starts to grow it pushes everything upwards and outwards to make way hence it just looks like a flabby stomach. I have heard babies described as the utlimate parasites, they take everything and give nothing back in return. They also produce a hormone that causes the mother to be extra sleepy therefore not wasting any energy so the baby can steal it all, so their is a reason for my laziness. I have been quite busy this morning but by afternoon I crash, would love a little hours sleep but DD1 has other ideas, we have been finishing making Christmas cards today.

Hello and welcome Jodie

sweetkitty · 03/12/2007 15:24

Minnie - glad you had a great time, I love when they start walking DD1 was 12 1/2 months DD2 11 1/2 months which is strange as DD2 was incubated a month longer than DD1
